Tim Noah marginalizes single payer

Tue, 07/22/2008 - 6:24pm — DCblogger

In an article subtitled Meet the interest groups that will decide the fate of medical insurance he mentions murder by spreadsheet astroturf and HCAN't.

Nowhere does he mention John Conyers, the 90 cosponsors, the the US Conference of Mayors or any of the broad coalition that has endorsed HR 676.

Noah looks really stupid when he suggests that 91 members of the House of Representatives have no role in determining the debate on health care and he embarrasses Slate when he produces such bilge. It is time that someone told him so.

Tim Noah fucks goats?

I did not know that.

Nice to see that "Democracy in action" attitude, there in the Village, too. And I love it that it's the fate of medical insurance that's the focus, instead of the "fate" of people who will, um, die.
